  subject to each of their respective Specific Terms.

Such amendments may be posted on the Site or on any of the other sites and/or Apps owned and/or operated by the relevant Mediacorp Group company. You are responsible for being aware of such changes, and your continued use of the Site, Services and/or Apps shall be deemed and construed as your conclusive and binding acceptance of the amended terms.
PAID GOODS AND/OR SERVICES; PAYMENT
1. Paid content. Some of the products, services, and/or content made available on the Site, Services and/or Apps (whether from Mediacorp or from a third party) will require a purchase before becoming available for use ("Paid Content"). Such Paid Content may be subject to individual terms and conditions in addition to the terms and conditions in the General Terms and any Specific Terms. By purchasing such Paid Content, you also agree that you will be bound by such individual terms and conditions and agree to pay for Paid Content through the Site, Services and/or Apps.
2. Method of payment. Unless otherwise stated, payment may be made by Visa, Mastercard and/or any other methods which may be clearly advertised on the Site, Services or Apps, from time to time. You agree that Mediacorp may charge your charge card or other account(s) and/or payment methods for any content, products or services purchased and for any additional amounts (including any taxes and late fees, as applicable) that may be accrued by or in connection with your account.
3. Time of payment. You are liable to pay for Paid Content at such charges and at such times as stated in the terms and conditions accompanying such Paid Content, or such charges and times that Mediacorp may determine from time to time. Payment for subscription based Paid Content will be billed in advance at monthly intervals or such intervals as may be determined by Mediacorp. Payment for all other Paid Content will be billed at the point of sale. All fees are due and payable as soon as the bill is issued, and must be settled by the payment date stated on the bill. The total price on the bill will include the price of the good or service plus any applicable goods and services tax.
4. Disputes. In the absence of fraud or manifest error, and subject to this clause, Mediacorp may rely on each bill as conclusive evidence against you of the accuracy, completeness and truth of all matters stated in it. If you wish to reasonably dispute any amount in the bill, you may withhold payment for such disputed amounts if you inform us in writing prior to the payment date shown on the bill. Otherwise, you are liable to pay us all the charges stated in the bill. Mediacorp will investigate any such dispute and provide a written response to you within 30 days from the day Mediacorp is notified of such a dispute. If the dispute is resolved in Mediacorp's favour, you must pay Mediacorp the disputed amount and all costs incurred in recovering the amount. Mediacorp may charge interest on the outstanding amount at 1.5% per month from the date the outstanding amount was due and payable and calculated on a daily basis or at such other rates as we may prescribe from time to time. Alternatively, Mediacorp may charge the standard late payment fee as we may prescribe from time to time. If Mediacorp agrees there is a mistake in the bill, Mediacorp will adjust the next bill accordingly. If you have already paid a bill and subsequently choose to contest it, any such dispute must be raised in writing to Mediacorp not later than 1 year from the date of that bill.

  1. the timely payment of all fees, without any counterclaim, deduction, set off or withholding whatsoever;
